GCPS will observe early release next week on Wednesday, October 21 and Thursday, October 22. Regular Core and Learning Labs will continue to take place these days at Gwinnett Online Campus. Parents, please check your student's grades either on the Portal or D2L and reach out to your students teacher if you have any questions or concerns. Parents are welcome to make arrangements for a conference with teachers at any time during the semester.
We continue to offer both virtual and face to face options for GOC extracurricular activities for our students. I encourage everyone to participate and get involved here at GOC with the option that works best for them.
